Since XL didn't release new races in 5.0, perhaps it should be called 4.99?

they need to implement nation changes... so the that players can change from east and west... make it a credit system and just use the nation system thats already in place. easy money for trion/xl and players can finally leave their dead nations to fight against player nations

They can't because of all the complex character flags. You'd be able to keep hopping nations and build up a stockpile of story quest items, or shed all of your infamy and etc. There's no way for everything to be cross checked without coding a brand new behemoth just for that purpose. There's also no way for item chests to be checked in this way that i remember hearing. You'd need to shed all of your land properties and have all of your items in your inventory at the same time just to be fully scanned to make sure it all pans out and all of your items and tags can be swapped to the desired nation. It would be a nightmare to request such a thing to a veteran that probably has 20 chests brimming with stuff.

They could go for another route, to delete your character and allow you to rebuild it from the ground up with your land properties and inventories intact, but the game copies your titles, stats, achievements, xp, skills and then pastes it onto the new character. This can cause problems though, as the game Dungeons and Dragons Online occasionally loses characters if they disconnect at the moment the server applies the characters parameters to the new level 1. They're forced to start over, because the game doesnt keep backup character files or records it and the staff are too underfunded to do so.

overcomplicating something obvious, just make a bound storage between characters on your account that lets you trade ur ship components, obsidian, hiram, etc. quest items shouldn't be allowed to transfer

What they should do is make bound gear account-bound not character bound that way people can get the new race level up and then send their gear over. Like Thunderhawk said though not necessary via chest
